"The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glosry of Christ, who is the image of God.
For we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus Christ's sake.
For God, who said, "Let light shine out of the darkness," made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of knowledge of the glory of God, in the face of Christ.
But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in dispair, persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.
We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.
For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus's sake, so that his life may be revealed in our mortal body.
So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you."
~2 CORNINTHIANS 4:4-12
